There are several different quest to obtain some special jobs in Final Fantasy XI, usually when your character level reach 30 there will be a quest to obtain some different advance job. But as you may know this advance job isn't more powerful and overpowered than the basic jobs, they only have some special skill that will help other party member in hunt or leveling. Here was some list of Advance job quest in Final fantasy XI.
PALADIN
The quest to obtain Paladin is easy. It was given from the NPC Balasiel in south San'Doria. He located on the bridge. The first thing, you need to give him is a foot. This foot obtained from most of undead enemies. Then you have to go to the Ordellas cave in La Thine. Go to location (G-7) and there will be a small pool. Touch the marks, then touch another marks, which is located not to far from the pool. The spot to touch the marks, is about 15 - 25 steps (depend on your race) from the pool. You will receive an item if done it correctly.Last back and talk to Balasiel, then talk to the guards on 2nd floor at the guard post east and west Cahaurme(J-9) & Baurise(H-9). Then go to Davoi (E10) and examine the discussed well and get an item. Go back to Balasiel and you will get a Lv 28 Kite Shield, and now you can change your job to a Lv. 1 Paladin.
DARK KNIGHT
The quest to be a Dark Knight is an easy one. You can do it as a lv 1 warrior if you wanted(as long as you have lv 30 in another job). However, you must be a warrior to do the quest. That does not mean you have to be a lv 30 warrior, it just mean you have to complete the quest having warrior as your main job.Talk to Gumbah (Bastok Mines J-7)get the quest. Then go to the 3rd floor of Palbrough Mines (G-8). Get on the ship back to town and after the ride in the Zerhaun mines you'll recieve a 2 handed sword called the Chaos Bringer(?). Equip the sword and kill 100 of any type of enemies without leaving the area. After the 100 or more kills goto the person named Beadeaux located at the Southeast exit of the Pashhow Marshland and you get Dark knight. Now start working on your lv 1 Dark Knight. Dark Knight is, in my opinion, the coolest
job ever.
